Greenleaf’s guide to OT History has 196 lessons placing biblical events in chronological order. Discussion questions are included for each lesson. Using it before or during your studies of Ancient Egypt and Greece will help place biblical history in perspective. This study will enable you to learn all the main bible stories directly from the bible (no dumbed down story books needed) and gain many other interesting insights you probably never considered before, like Adam being alive right up until just before the flood, etc. A great must have for the Christian home educator.

Next, read Ancient Rome: How It Affects You Today which shows what happens when a society ignores “Uncle Eric’s Model” and embraces fascism. To build a better future we need to know how we got where we are today. The political trend that has dominated the world for 2,000 years, including the investment markets, remains almost unrecognized. Recommended reading for Truthquest History’s Ancient Rome.
